The Mercer Island Reporter is seeking to fill a position on its Editorial Board that was vacated by Salim Nice after he recently announced his candidacy for a seat on the Mercer Island City Council.

Islanders who are interested in discussing Mercer Island topics and endorsing campaigns are invited to apply to join the board. The Reporter seeks a board member who will best provide balance to our current board, which consists of publisher William Shaw, editor Carrie Rodriguez and Islanders Leslie Meagley, Gary Robinson, Lisa Casterella and Denise Hopkins. The new board member will serve on this volunteer board for two years.

If you are interested, please email editor@mi-reporter.com by 5 p.m., July 28, and include a brief bio and why you would like to join.

The Reporter reestablished its editorial board in February 2016 to weigh Island issues and provide Reporter readers with more information to help them make the most informed decisions.
